Examples of digital media include: diskettes, magnetic tapes, external\/removable hard disk drives, flash drives, compact disks, and digital video disks. Examples of non-digital media include paper or microfilm. Media protections can restrict access and make media available to authorized personnel only, apply security labels to sensitive information, and provide instructions on how to remove information from media so that the information cannot be retrieved or reconstructed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3.9 Personnel Security<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Users play a vital role in protecting a system as many important issues in information security involve users, designers, implementers, and managers. How these individuals interact with the system and the level of access they need to do their jobs can also impact the system\u2019s security posture. Almost no system can be secured without properly addressing these aspects of personnel security. Personnel security seeks to minimize the risk that staff (permanent, temporary, or contractor) pose to company assets through the malicious use or exploitation of their legitimate access to the company\u2019s resources.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3.10 Physical Protection<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Examples of physical and environmental requirements include: physical access authorizations, physical access control, monitoring physical access, emergency shutoff, emergency power, emergency lighting, alternate work site, information leakage, and asset monitoring and tracking. Companies should limit physical access to systems, equipment, and the respective operating environments to authorized individuals, protect the physical plant and support infrastructure for systems, provide supporting utilities for systems, protect systems against environmental hazards, and provide appropriate environmental controls in facilities containing systems.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cvent.com\/events\/defense-cybersecurity-assurance-program-dcap-seminar\/event-summary-e5394897efa043ff9cde34edcbd887b6.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">View Full Agenda<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Defense Cybersecurity Assurance Program (DCAP) supports defense contractors across the supply chain by offering expert cybersecurity training, consulting services and technical assistance.
